Macbook pro apple tv lag
Has a solution been found for the lag between apple tv and macbook pro?
The lag is slight but slows down then speeds up and feels like I'm having an epileptic fit in slow motion!
I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Late 2011) and using OS Yosemite V 10.10.1 and just bought the apple tv 2 weeks ago- but can't see where I find what gen or whatever it is.
I'm using Google Chrome and have tried Saffari but the lag is still there. The lag does not occur when using Ipad.
What's the latest apple?

I'm all Mac across the board: iPhone 5, Macbook Pro, Apple TV etc. I can't get the movies I've purchased on my Apple TV to appear in my iTunes library for viewing… Any suggestions? I have iTunes Match turned on and everything.
Thanks Terence! I can see iTunes library from neither iPhoto or iMovie . I'll check on iTunes forum.

Macbook Pro Late 2012 Lagging when connected to external display (1GB Graphics Card)
I have a brand new Macbook Pro 15'' running 10.8.3 with 1GB NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M Graphics Card. I've been using the laptop conected to my Panasonic 720p TV for a while now and suddenly everything started lagging, the dock lagged, the lauchpad also. I have erased programs, music and everything left in my computer. Im running normally on 27% of the RAM memory (8gb) and have a capacity of 500+ GB left in the HDD. Please Advise...
Hi there Chiefinho,
You may find the troubleshooting steps toward the bottom of the article below helpful. Please keep in mind, diagnosing a recurring kernel panic can be difficult. If you would like to avoid this process, or do not know how to perform any of the following steps, consider bringing the Mac to a Genius at an Apple Store or an Apple Authorized Service Provider for assistance. Be sure to ask that, if the drive needs reformatting or replacing, they contact you about escalating your case to a special data recovery service. If you plan to visit an Apple Retail store, make a reservation at the Genius Bar using http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ (available in some countries only).

Macbook pro 15" stutter/lag in photoshop
I just bought my 15" macbook pro and installed Photoshop on it. It stutters when moving pictures, when moving zommed in canvas etc. The picture im moving is a 2mb small picture and there is a noticable lag when moving it. I've changed the performance mode to "normal" and the photoshop is in non retina mode but it still lags/stutters. is there a way to fix this problem?
Hey Reanon,
To start off, I would follow the troubleshooting steps in this article, specifically the "f the issue occurs in one application only" section:

Slow MacBook Pro with frame lag issues
Hi,
When I switched on my MacBook Pro (mid 2010) today it was very, very slow booting and very slow in OSX (Mounatin Lion, 10.8.4)
The activity monitor showed that the CPU-usage constantly was around 50% for a couple of minutes but then went down to 1 - 10 and I couldn't see any specific app that ate all the CPU-usage. Same thing with the disk activity. The memory used 2 GB after boot.
However, after the CPU-usage, the disk activity and the memory "cooled off" the computer was still slow and laggy. With laggy I mean that I had frame lag issues playing videos from internet or DVDs or when I used the mission control or scrolled down a website. Kind of like when drivers for a graphic card aren't installed on a PC.
I can't remember I did anything out of the ordinary before this happened, except installing a few apps that I've now removed.
I've run the Apple Hardwaretest, repaired the file system with both Disk Utility and fsck and I've also checked these: http://osxdaily.com/2012/10/11/mac-running-slow-reasons/
I'm thinking about buying an SSD disk (already have 8 GB memory) or wipe everything clean and install fresh. You think that would help? I'd rather see another solution to this problem because the computer has worked flawlessly before all this happened.
Best regards
/AxelPlease read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
{ sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
{ launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; echo; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -ef
Step 4
ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -ef
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items' | open -ef
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal. -
13" Retina Macbook Pro slight trackpad lag
I just got my new retina macbook pro 2 weeks ago, 2.8ghz i5, 8gb RAM, 500gb storage.
It has been running smoothly whatsoever, but now i am noticing a slight lag when i move the trackpad. It only occurs, sometimes, if i let go of the trackpad for approx. 5 seconds or more, and i have to say that it is a very brief (<0.5 seconds) lag, but very annoying over time when you start noticing it.
To me it seems like a UI lag, because i have no other problems with the trackpad - the lag only occurs during "the first touch" so to speak, the only real way for me to describe it is, as if the trackpad has to wake up when it hasn't been used for a few seconds. I have already tried to reset PRAM and SMC - and no background processes seem to be eating up CPU.....
Any thoughts? Is this common behavior or?
Thanks in advance!At least it is nice to hear that somebody else is noticing this, and that it isn't just me being oversensitive to lag..
I tried some other things to solve the problem:
1. Install mouse acceleration software called "SmoothMouse" with no success.
2. Install ControllerMate and tried to create a virtual mouse to simulate the input of an external mouse - also with no success.
In the upcoming week i will try to take my MBP to the local apple store and let them have a look at the problem, and i will try and see if i can compare my trackpad lag with some of the other MBP's in the store.
I just recently converted to Mac from PC, and have never experienced any sort of input lag like this before, no matter how sh***y the PC has been.... so i am pretty dissapointed from seeing it on a >2000$ machine that otherwise runs extremely smooth -
Macbook Pro Overheating and Lagging
Hi.
About 2 weeks ago my macbook pro began lagging a lot. At first I thought it was my flash player, since it was lagging videos and flash sites on every browser, but then I realized it was lagging on programs and applications as well, such as Skype and Photobooth.
I called apple support twice, and after helping me with some memory issues and some update issues, the lag still persisted.
I visited an apple store today and brought my laptop to the genius bar. It wasn't laggy at the genius bar, although maybe it simply hadn't overheated in time (I didn't think it was overheating until after I returned home).
They formated my laptop and I thought that would fix the problem but it didn't!
It lags like crazy when I run a website or photobooth or anything, and I noticed the laptop gets REALLY hot really fast. I'm not sure if it's overheating for sure, but I would like some more suggestions before I take a second trip to the apple store (which is far from me).
Thanks!for lagging problem,you can solve at Disk Utilitty ( repair disk permittion)
for averheating, you can try to install Gfxstatus( googling,its freeware). Use this aplication to monitoring overheating issue,we can control booth of fan.to minimize heat.
good luck. -
MacBook Pro painfully slow, lagging after Mavericks install
I know I'm not the only one with this problem, but I'm not often able to follow the advice given to others -- it's too technical for me and uses abbreviations I'm not familiar with. I would so appreciate any suggestions anyone might have -- expressed so people with not much expertise can follow them. Here's the report on my machine. Thanks!!

OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it updated with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Disable Java in Safari > Preferences > Security.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind. -
MacBook Pro & Apple TV Conflicting
So the other day my family bought Apple TV and today we installed it. I was on my computer as we set it up, and now everytime somebody uses the remote, and presses the up or down arrow, my volume changes. It does this even if I disable WiFi and Bluetooth on my computer.
I run Mountain Lion and I am on a mid-2010 MacBook Pro if it helps at all. I was thinking this was an AirPlay issue, but my computer doesn't support AirPlay.Nevermind, I solved it.

HT201343 MacBook Pro & Apple TV
have an apple TV. My MacBook Pro sees the apple TV in iTunes, but no where else. how can i see my desktop on my apple TV?
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
AirPlay Mirroring requires an Early 2011 or newer MacBook Pro, and OS X Mountain Lion. OS X Mountain Lion is 10.8, so open > About this Mac, and check if your OS X version is 10.8.
If your Mac isn't compatible, you have to use a third-party app to mirror your MacBook Pro onto the Apple TV, as AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com -
IMac vs MacBook Pro + Apple Display
First off, my apologies if this is not considered appropriate for the board.
I have an 2009 MacBook Pro and love it. My iPad is increasingly taking care of my mobile computer needs. I tend to use the MBP at a desk and portability comes in handy for trips.
With the new iMacs coming out and with the new MBPs I am wondering:
1) Have you made the switch from a MBP to an iMac? Any regrets?
2) Any of you using a MBP and Apple display? (another option I'm considering)
3) If you have used both an iMac and MBP, have you noticed any major differences in performance?
Thanks in advance!!I've done that, the display on a MBP on a display and ultimately I opted for an Imac. It was not performance per say, through the IMAC has a better card if you need it and get a good config, for me it was working in an uncluttered space.
I love my MBP but the Imac feels more open to me for a long wrok environment, I prefer the magic mouse to the trackpad and love the larger HD space. I use both, sometimes at once as I do alot of 3d artwork and the rendering times can sometimes take a while so I need the second system for doing other things.
I think really it just comes down to personal feeling and if you think the MBP does that for you that's great. Possibly head down to the apple store and muck about with an Imac for a little and see how you feel it . -
And my battery is being eaten up like I don't even have one. I do tend to multitask so there are times (like right now) when there are an ungodly number of tabs open in Chrome at the same time as Scrivener is up while I also am diagnosing computer issues. Still, I'm a busy girl so this is what I get, I suppose. I tried etresoft's EtreCheck app and based on the feedback others have received, I have removed several files and programs. However, there is one Launch Daemon and a few Launch Agents that keep popping up as [failed]. I haven't seen solutions for these so I'm not even sure if they're a problem, but if they are I don't know what's safe to do and what's not.
Thanks in advance for any help you might have!

VeohTV2Version.pluginAlso, just as a bonus in case you can't really help with the first issue, I also find myself unable to forward any ports - port checkers see them as closed even though I explicitly open them. I've tried forwarding port 21 (for FTP) as well as various ones to get either Transmission or uTorrent working up to speed. Right now I have no seed rate and a 1.4kb/s download, when I can normally get good download/upload.
I have tried to do this on the same laptop on 3 different wireless connections for many, many different combinations of ports. I'm about ready to give up...
I have noticed that when a port is not being forwarded, canyouseeme.org says the connection times out, but it says that the connection is refused when I do forward the port.
I don't have any Firewall directly on my Mac so nothing should be interfering with the forwarding, although I do admit that ports and all of that is not really my strong suit. Help is greatly appreciated.
